For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

No one knows what the Dominion's plan is, so it's worth looking at it from the other end. What's the worst thing that can happen here?
The worst thing that can happen here (from a heroic perspective) is that the Dominators bombard the planet and kill a bunch of people. The second worst thing...
No, all it means is that Jax-Ur's mind will be the only one to merge with the Oversoul and thus become its sole template for how to act as a thinking being.

Wait, that means he won't be a future problem?
"I heard the original Arnus came out of retirement to try a case. He was defending that Kryptonian who blew up Timaron, Dru-Zod was his name."
"Don't say 'original Arnus', that's offensive. He's Primus Branch Arnus. But wait, that guy was still alive? I thought he blew up with Krypton."...
The most hilarious result of this investigation would be if Dru-Zod proves to have been telepathically altered, but Ursa's meditative practice means she wasn't affected and went along with the genocide because Zod said it was a good idea.
"Heard about" something and "know" something can be different things. I'm sure Amalek appreciated the "these are the facts you ned to know" review even if he had maybe heard about martians before.
We've gotten a lot of comments in this story about the loss of the Kryptonian Empire from the viewpoint of the military caste. That made it pretty easy to accept their narrative that it was a great tragedy and a stupid decision on the part of the Science Council.
Then in one brief passage...
While different continuities have different takes, in Young Justice and modern takes martian physical abilities are generally inferior to kryptonian physical abilities. From the perspective of your average human it doesn't make much difference if the guy you're fighting can lift ten tons or 100...
Paul is introduced as a CEO who technically has no position in the British government. He could pretty easily duck and say that he didn't even found his company until after the war ended, and he has no obligation or authority or even knowledge to talk about what the British government might...
I wonder if any of the Kryptonians that Amalak murdered were living in a jurisdiction that has an interest and ability to pursue charges.
It would be kind of interesting if at this big, showy trial that might actually make interstellar news, someone shows up with a request to extradite Amalak...
Seems very possible that "And then get the Anti-Life in to deal with the Reach," was in fact the next part of Vandal Savage's trade one alien conquerer out for the next plan. Or should that be, "plan".
You don't want to be executing Savage's plan.
Honestly though, unless we do a near-future time travel arc it's probably going to take so many years for them to sort themselves out that their attitude to aliens and isolationism won't be very relevant before the story ends.
Sort of a, "And everyone can believe what they want about which...
I was pretty surprised when we got the high end estimate of "maybe ten thousand" phantom zone prisoners some chapters back. That radically changed my view of how this whole colony thing was going to work. I had been assuming "dozens".
I guess I can sort of see it. If there was an entire...
In true comic book fashion, if you have a character named "Ursa" and a chance to give her a second name, don't pass up the opportunity to make some sort of bear pun. That's my idea!
OL and Karsta interacted pretty recently, and the way it ended I had assumed he had recruited her into the war against the Reach. Strictly speaking, nothing in the latest chapter contradicts this recent meeting. She could have responded "I'll think about it" to OL's offer to fight the Reach...
I appreciate the effort they're putting into where to "settle" the detainees, but I'm not sure if long term it'll be much use. The SI and Superman can choose where to drop these people, but if they are truly "released" then you can't make them stay there. Sure they won't have spaceships to...
A nice reminder that Vandal Savage is perfectly capable of playing the reasonable man when it suits his goals. I wonder if he'll try it on OL, if they are ever in a position to talk where OL isn't immediately trying to kill Savage.
